Richland County Fair and Rodeo This Week

"All Signs Point to Fun at the Fair!"

The Richland County Fair & Rodeo in Sidney welcomes more than 30,000 people every year to four days of excitement that also celebrate the heritage of the MonDak. With rodeos, 4-H competitions, ag exhibits, food and commercial vendors, carnival rides and entertainment, the fair offers something for every age and interest.

PRCA Rodeos will be held Thursday and Friday evenings with Thursday designated as Military Appreciation night and Friday as Tough Enough to Wear Pink night. Saturday night's entertainment features Eli Young Band with special guest Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

North Star Amusements will once again welcome everyone to the thrills and chills of the midway, with presale all day ride passes available. Check out all the tantalizing smells at the many and varied food booths, or find just what you've been looking for at one of the merchandise vendors. Don't forget to view the many fair entries, including the fabulous seed pictures created locally every year.

Free entertainment will be found in the old commercial building and throughout the fair. Freckle Farm Petting Zoo, Rock Bottom Boys, Rollo and Marcus, Funny Man Who Does Tricks will keep young and old coming back for more each day.

Daily admission is $2; 5 years old and under are free.

What began as a small street fair over 75 years ago has become the most anticipated event of the summer. Stop by for an evening or all four days – you'll be glad you did.
